I haven't read this yet but wanted to say good luck with your stage play. I'm sure you'll find writing your own work more satisfying than fan fiction.
cheers

Female Villains
Catwoman's the best. Julie Newmar's version. So I'm putting her aside. Yes, one can debate the "lovey" Catwoman or critique it and Stanley Ross' s writing but she takes the number one spot. Even Lee Merriweather and Eartha Kitt's performances, while not at Newmar's level, are still interes...

The Archer, a missed opportunity (no pun intended)
The Archer could've been as successful a villain as King Tut or Bookworm or even Shame but the character and story falls a bit flat. Maybe Art Carney could've done a better job with a different script but his performance isn't very interesting. A Robin Hood type villain should've been more dashing. ...

Musings on John Astin and Batman's Anniversary
I like John Astin's portrayal of the Riddler. For years I thought it was a lesser performance but I recently watched some of these episodes, and not only does he offer a different and inspired take, but the story itself is pretty good, especially for late Season 2. Gorshin's version is definitive, m...

Re: Question about the S2 Catwoman episodes
I guess I could've worded it more precisely but that's what I was getting at with my mention of Tut and sphinx. That reference really stood out since it was so unusual.

Re: Question about the S2 Catwoman episodes
----Good point about Penguin recognizing Alfred, I think it's in the Bird's Last Jest he even refers to how Alfred keeps getting mixed up in his affairs. I didn't realize those items are in the Batcave, that's nice. ----I'm guessing not as trophy display per se, but just items from earlier episodes ...

Re: Do you prefer the cliffhanger episodes or the resolution
While I prefer the first episode more, the resolution of the bell clapper trap is well done and suspenseful, and the super-imposed time is a good visual. The whole process from Lydia gassing Robin to Batman's rescue with O'Hara is great. It's pretty unique to see Batman and O'Hara together, let alon...

Re: Do you prefer the cliffhanger episodes or the resolution
It depends on the episode. I understand why they did it as a time and money saver, but usually was disappointed when they mention the escape but don't show it. I don't care for a lot of the Penguin eps, but restaurant one is enjoyable, particularly that we get Aunt Harriet in the fight at the end! A...

Re: Question about the S2 Catwoman episodes
It doesn't seem like it was a concern at all for them. The only continuity, aside from Catwoman, would be the mention of Barbara Gordon in that King Tut episode in late season 2, the mention of the sphinx and the connected plot in the Spell of Tut and Dick getting his license so he could drive the B...

Re: Question about the S2 Catwoman episodes
If she plummets to her death in Darn Catwoman, then maybe Eartha is a rebirth of the character; it would fit the surreality of invisibility, instant Bat costumes from tiny pills, human surfboards, and Bat-recorders that lure toy explosive mice...!

Re: Question about the S2 Catwoman episodes
Continuity wise, is there some interaction with her and Bruce or Batman after the College episodes? Or is it just a wrap up in Wayne Manor or Commissioner Gordon's office? Is there any sense of closure there? If not, then puuurrrhaps Scat Darn Catwoman should've been the end, since for a little whil...

Re: Series Finale? should there be one
My impression was they learned about the cancellation with enough time to slide in as cameos but not enough to actually come up with a better episode. Who knows? Maybe savvy members of the production sensed the impending axe but did nothing. Maybe it surprised all of them. A movie-like send off woul...
